When the typical "islam is peace" argument is thrust into the mix, remind folks of the following:
After Muhammad died, the people who lived with him and knew his religion best immediately fell into war with each other.

Fatima, Muhammad’s favorite daughter, survived the early years among the unbelievers at Mecca safe and sound, yet died of stress from the persecution of fellow Muslims only six months after her father died. She even miscarried Muhammad’s grandchild after having her ribs broken by the man who became the second caliph.

Fatima’s husband Ali, who was the second convert to Islam and was raised like a son to Muhammad, fought a civil war against an army raised by Aisha, Muhammad’s favorite wife – and one whom he had said was a “perfect woman.” 10,000 Muslims were killed in a single battle waged less than 25 years after Muhammad’s death.

Three of the first four Muslim rulers (caliphs) were murdered. All of them were among Muhammad’s closest companions. The third caliph was killed by allies of the son of the first (who was murdered by the fifth caliph a few years later, then wrapped in the skin of a dead donkey and burned). The fourth caliph (Ali) was stabbed to death after a bitter dispute with the fifth. The fifth caliph went on to poison one of Muhammad’s two favorite grandsons. The other grandson was later beheaded by the sixth caliph.

Rashidun Caliphs (632–661)

The folks taking over the pub believe this bloodline to be the foundation fathers of their faith. Islam, believe it or else!

Peaceful...to/with no one, no where, not even amongst themselves, from it's inception.

Sell all kinds of pork products near there and put crosses in the windows and pictures of Christ.

Sounds to me like they should have supported the pub a bit more when it was in business. I don’t see how it could be a “cornerstone” of the community when it didn’t even have enough customers to make a profit.

I had my chance. I could have gone to England. My cousin and her husband were living there just 20 years ago, I could have stayed with them.

I could have gone to England.

Now, I’ll never have that opportunity. England as we once knew it is gone.

Gone.

Your average Joe Brit can’t even afford to buy a Pint anymore.

Much the same here; a beer in any bar around these parts is minimum five bucks, and in a restaurant fugedaboutit!

A lot of the price is because of gov’t mandated regulation, licensing and insurance, there is nothing anymore the gov’t doesn’t have their filthy hands in, unless you are a criminal illegal alien invader then you get the store for free.

Why worry about one pub turning into a mosque when the entire west has surrendered to the ROP? Notice that the subject of Islam has not been touched upon during the presidential debates, neither by the Rats nor Rinos. The debates remind me of an event with the objective of who can produce the most of smoke and mirrors.

“The Greyhound is one of thousands of old-fashioned pubs to have shut down across Britain in recent years, with 29 said to be closing every week. “

Many think that the reason was the Politically Correct crowd in unison with the fanatical anti-Smoking lunatics succeeding in getting smoking banned in public houses.
